During the final year of my A-levels, me and my fellow sixth former friends decided it would be fun to plan a post A-level holiday. After thinking it through for months and coming up with a variety of different ideas on what kind of trip we wanted, we finally opted for an inter-railing trip round...

I have just returned from a month of train travel with Interrail and I am bronzed, toned, still in one piece and ready to put you in the picture! Before I went I read every internet article I could get my hands on, they mostly covered the experience and many did it justice. I hope I can convey...

Oh how I wish I were young and fancy free again when I think of my time travelling around Europe. I am sure things have changed a lot since I went on interrail holidays but those holidays have remained in my memory as if I went last year. Travelling by train in other countries is an excellent...

The pass entitles the holder to free travel on all the railways throughout Europe for a month and cheaper passes are also available where travel is limited to a specific 'zone'...

At the moment an Interrail Pass for anyone under 26 years will set you back £285 for a month which covers all 8 zones, i.e. pretty much everywhere in Europe and also including Morocco. I would strongly advise that you get the extra insurance which is available with it that costs about £13 ( I...
